A concertina plunger, also known as an accordion plunger, is a modern version of the traditional cup plunger. |

The plunger has concertinaed sides, which give it a more powerful plunge. |

What’s the difference between a concertina, cup and flange plunger?
|
|
|
|
|
A concertina plunger cup is made up of bellows. The bellows increase the amount of water displacement when plunging. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the handle is pulled upwards, this stretches the bellows, drawing in water by creating a sucking pressure. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The handle is then pushed down, forcing water into the gulley to dislodge the blockage. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The bigger the displacement of water, the greater the force applied to the blockage in the pipe. |
